"James Whalen went to his friend's house Saturday
night thinking he would have fun time. But the 12-
year-old left that house with severe burns on
several areas of his body.
"I got a call at 2:12 a.m. telling me there was a
minor incident," said Whalen's mother, Trudy
Smith.
When the mother learned her son had been burned,
she rushed to the friend's house to pick him up
and take him home.
"The worst I imagined was a blister on his
finger," Smith explained.
But when she arrived at the home she could clearly
see her son was severely burned." - 5 News
